Check out the videos below to see this very Japanese event. (I'm told that what they sing kind of translates to "Let's Dance"!)
It was great seeing the kids getting into it too:
Last month there was also the mammoth challenge that Michael, Michie and I set for ourselves: the climbing (and conquering) of the highest mountain in the land, Mt Fuji. I'm not kidding when I say it was a long climb. We started our main climb at 9pm on the Thursday night and didn't get back down to the bottom until around 4pm the next day. More than anything, it was a great mental challenge, full of frustration, joy, frustration, a cool English chick, and more frustration.
A picture says a thousand words, and I so don't feel like writing an essay, so I'll let the photos do the talking. Click here. (Make sure you've got the "Info On" option to read the captions.)
When we got to the bottom, Michael and I opted for some ice-cream. And somehow, ice-cream made everything seem okay again.

ReplyDeleteYep!! Kerry is going to piggyback me!!! Why did you feel sick? Was it lack of oxygen?
ReplyDeletehaha nice one kerry :)
ReplyDeleteI think it was the lack of oxygen, though that normally goes to your head, not your stomach. Could also have been eating so much before the strenuous climb... but that egg/chicken/rice dinner was so good that I couldn't help myself.
